i dont understand, why so many ics roms based on an alpha?[rant]

already about 5 ics roms not counting the cm9 alpha, why??
they all have the same bugs
they all have the same things working
super ics kangorama?

ultimate ics?

koush's + some extra wall papers + file explorer
all these things are just a completely alpha ics build with some hacks thrown in.. why?? why not just make a post in the ics thread (either by kwiboo or koush) saying "hey guys use launcher pro if you feel its buggy" or "here is link to glados kernel" instead of making "New ultimate sweet fast ICS rom" when all you are doing is downloading one of the actual source built ics roms and opening it with 7zip and dropping in a new boot.img in there then asking for donations :/

It is no different than the numerous GB/CM based ROMs. Who cares?

I think that He ( OP ) won't be happy until they say Beta.. its alpha for a reason. so many bugs much more than beta. just sit happy with GB and give it time. I rushed it and lost the ability for Google Wallet, nothing can fix what went wrong with my phone.

these people couldn't be taking part in a hobby for them, could they be just trying to learn the ins and outs of android, heck they couldn't even be kids learning to code and all are getting excited to show off what they complied.
Last time I checked you were not required to flash every rom in the Dev section. So lets take a step back I don't like miui nothing wrong with it but should I be complied to start a thread asking why we have topics about when I don't care for it.

You said it....
Chill out. We have to get AOSP working bug-free in the first place, then they'll start looking different. Even CM9 doesnt have any CMsettings or anything special. We're sorry that something that we're beating Google at (ICS release for NS) currently is not to your standards.
In due time.....in due time.

I see where the OP is coming from, but I disagree. The fact that the devs work hard to bring the OS to our devices is pretty appreciated. They pretty much do Google's work for free by modifying the code.

lol im not mad that they are all buggy, im mad that people are "deving" with a buggy base and just adding to it. why not be a little patient, if you cant create it/build it from source, wait til the base you will be using to 7zip and copypaste into your rom becomes stable. dont use an alpha build to promote your name

I don't think you quite understand how it works currently. There is no buggy base. They're attempting to adapt AOSP source code to compile and execute correctly on the Nexus S. This is way more complicated than you think. Almost all "bugs" you see are byproducts of tinkering with configurations, compile-ations, etc, in an attempt to get it working properly.
To put things in perspective, ICS development for the Nexus S is light years ahead of all other devices. For that reason alone, we should be grateful. Others are still struggling to either boot, or get somewhere AFTER boot.
If you don't like the way it's done, then wait for the official ROM. You have a choice, after all.

yes, two roms are getting built from the source on xda; kwiboo and koush. then all the others.
both kwiboo and koush thread is full of bug reports of people using a different rom like brainmaster, ultimate ics, kangorama ics, etc.
all this does is add confusion from the rom chef adding things to the original rom developers work
what im suggesting/ranting is that if a rom chefs should be a little more patient in making more spinoff roms that don't really add much besides to confusion for noob users

Your argument makes a LOT more sense now. I agree, if people are posting bugs in Koush/Kwiboo sections when running brainmaster or other tweaked versions, then that's bad.
Your original argument didn't really point this out.
Not much can be done about that, aside from aggressive moderation. Tweakers will be tweakers.

Most of the bugs posted are not even valid. One in particular is known issue even on the GNexus.
The biggest issue I see is code optimization at this point.
One thing I think no one has mentioned is ICS may never be super fast on the NS. I will be much faster on dual core hardware

This is one thing that has been bothering me as well. Every single one of these ROMs are not truly as smooth as Gingerbread. In no way do they even reach the fluidity found in Gingerbread ROMS. The hardware acceleration helps, but even then you can still feel the difference between the two Android releases. I have yet to hear a proper explanation as to why this is happening and I was hoping that the fix for this would be Google releasing the official Ice Cream Sandwich update.
Is it is code optimization as you say? Or is there more to it than that? I want to believe that hardware doesn't play a significant role here.

Agree 100% no released rom before ota is even out is worth running.. I ran koush or w/e and it worked but felt like I was holding a brick.. ruff! Brainmasters straight looks like android donut.. but so does cyanogens.. no disrespect to any of the above.. but htcclay is god..

Strange, I've found that Koush's latest (CM9 Alpha 11) is plenty fast, not significantly slower than GB. Definitely Kwiboo v2 was slow as molasses, but then again it came out days ago (a long time when it comes to how fast things are moving). BM v5 is pretty fast but buggy. Also, it seems that adding franco kernel to any of these also speeds things up significantly, but I haven't tried it with CM9 Alpha 11 yet.

I found kwiboo's to be a lot more stable than koush's. although koush's had more functionality.. my bluetooth didnt work, and i got many errors.

Understand that we are using old binaries. ICS will run just as good as gingerbread, if not, better. These will make a world of difference

I'd kind of disagree with this. In its current early state here on the NS, I've gotten it running butter smooth and highly responsive, on a 1.1 OC/UV kernel. This is WITHOUT tweaks to filesystem, etc. If certain apps would just display properly when GPU Rendering is turned on, and some battery stuff worked out, I'd be 100% content.
Now granted, I've seen it running on the SGS2 and Galaxy Nexus and they're clearly speedier, but in my experience, my apps run just as fast as they did in GB.
On a side note....wanna see slow? It's been ported to the T-Mobile G1! HA! The first, original android phone!

I agree. there was actually a recent article on android police about this. There is no problem with people making their own roms but don't clog up the development section with "roms" that really all they do is bundle some easily downloadable market apps and some wallpapers and call it a new rom.
What the SGS2 xda forum actually did was split the dev section into 2 . One for original dev work and one for spin offs.

You really think you are all high and mighty now huh? I've taken a look at your posts before and after you made your kernel, and let me tell you something: there is a big difference in the attitude of the posts. It's like the fact that you have developed something gave you a sense of authority. There is no excuse for you to be disrespectful.
Are you bored to death? No one asked you to post here. No one asked for your opinion. If you are bored, leave. I am not a fan of themed roms, but your posts just sicken me.

Its looks good, but a few advises to convey
1) Name the thread "[ROM] Spring Rom [GB 2.3.3 v20c]"- This would look more formal and attractive
2) Add more info about the mods & tweaks you implemented
3) Don't listen or care for anyone who criticizes
I guess you have used Zeam (One of my favourite Launchers)
and also i love the default GB settings icons
I couldn't say that i will try it, sorry because i'm more into graphical customisations. But would like to advice every stock GB lover to use this ROM

First of all a superb effort on this one Anil
Havent replied on xda since a long time...but somehow had that urge to test something new and so tried this one.... And yes rightfully said... amongst all the High Fi stuff of 2.3.7 and ICS, somehow the stability is being overlooked as nightlies have come into picture.... almost every other day we have the beta updates of tons of ROMs... most of those being just the customisations of the major ones... The actualy ones are just three... LOL the ICS port, CM7.2 nighlies and the Oxygen port.... So many versions and so less to try...
Maybe im being old school but i liked the development when the REAL devs published something...that too taking their own time...coming up with REAL updates and not just simple things like fixed headset icon etc.. Mik, Knzo, Franco, Andy....miss their work dearly....and at the same time i do appreciate the efforts of the new frotiers like Popdog and the other guys developing on P500...!!!
To sum it up id say, Good work done to provide just the nessesary customisations and at the same time keeping the ROM stock..... I am using it since a few hours now and everything seems to be working well.. No bugs or performance lags...would report aout the battery in maybe a day or so..
P.s.: Modification, be it of a line or an entire re-write of a code is still a modification. So unless he's asking u for paying his internet bills, stop criticizing each and everything around u.. He didnt steal ur code or modification did he..?? Its sometimes good to just avoid trolling where u are not needed

Thanks Parth.

[Q] how do we test kennels ?

Hi guys (you guys are the Jedi's in the world of Android).. My sgs i9000 is on the Dark Knight ROM based on ova 4.0.4.. Currently using latest devil kennel.. I want to test some different kernels and see what suits me the best..!! What I would like to know is what must I look out for apart from features.. Check it's stability, speed, responsiveness.. What else can I check and how.. Would be nice if someone posted a list of points.. (things to look for when testing/trying new kernels)

for me , the first thing I'm gonna ask for is RAM size and games then comes the speed, bugs, and so on

Thank you for replying.. Okay we know ram size from kernel description..
How do I check the speed & games (you mentioned). ??
I would like a small list I can check to test kernel
Example
ram
speed
over/under clock
governors
schedulers
Thanks.. Any more advice please do reply

I won't list everything but you can discover all aspects of the kernel by using it , some games are not compatible with some kernels and I think it happens only in beta version it become solved as soon as it is discovered and you may find this in the replies that people make in the same thread .

This is a useful program https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.into.stability&hl=en
It will stress test your config and let you know how stable it is

Official ARM. Project Thread

Hello O2X Community,
I am here to announce ARM. which will be on your device! This thread is for you to discuss about which ever kernel specific features you want. Of course, here are the ARM. specific features that will be included:
- Based Official CyanogenMod Sources with ICS Drop
- Dimmed LED for more Battery Life
- Undervolted clock rates for more battery savings
- Deep sleep surpasses minimal clock rate for further sleep savings to increase battery life
- Optional Overclock for performance
- Minor GPU Overclock without increasing battery drain
- Maximum minimum brightness to save battery at night
- Various Phone hardware modules undervolted for more battery life
Compatible with all CM10 Based ROMs
Seeing all of those features, it means that we aim for Power and Performance
Please discuss about how you want us to work on the kernel. Note that a Stock ICS version will be developed after the CM's final version/build.
Note that we do not accept bugs posted right to the thread. Submit it to the github instead.
Github

hey, thanks for your work guys!
here's a list of features i miss from old GB kernels:
- a cpu governor that will disable the 2nd core when the screen is off (basically the hotplug governor main feature applied to interactive/conservative ones)
- a way to let us choose at wich frequency and after how many seconds the 2nd core should turn on and off
- simple i/o (SIO) scheduler
- a slightly ram overclock
- ramhack if possible 0-32-48-64(-80-96)MB (i think it's not atm?)
- every other specific and/or general tweak you can think of
ps: should you open a parallel thread in the dev section?

Make the led light as a notification light
When can we expect these to see running on our phone
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk 2

Ok. Whatever is said is said, but of course, hotplug wilk be joining in, and pegasusd, since its another power saving governor for dual cores. And RAM hacks are not applicable for ARM.
About tweaks, they will be added.(Of course)
Lastly, I want you to know that its scheduled for January. But I will try my best to complete by New Year's Eve. Lastly, I am finding another developer to maintain this device. Please PM.

this here sounds very interesting to be honest nicholaschw and i would like to see everything u wrote down for this phone bcs if it can also help extend battery life that would be awesome while boosting it, bcs i still don't feel this phone is out of date, bcs u still got dual-core processor and a nvidia graphic chip that can still do good and play 1080p through hdmi ^^

Great announcement,looking forward to.

Lets just say harsh is a dev. If you are, PM me asap. This is because i want two maintainers at the same time (1 of them is me) because i have to see to other phones also.
I assure you i will work on this fully.
Optimus black, your near partner is nearing final release. Once its done, you will expect my full concentration to o2x.
I hope i enjoy deving here. report bugs as soon as a new release is out. that way, your stable ARM. will be here in no time!
Final member needed, Alpha tester, required to be online when i am and must be skype-able. This tester tests each and every build. He must be well versed in exiting soft brick as fast as possible

USB OTG is too much work? I dont know if it can be ported from others Tegra2 devices.
Waiting for this!!!

is there any developer visiting general section i think no developer see this interesting project that nicholas starting

not very important, but its nice to have. a option to change the HDMI output. having it working automatically is great. but sometimes i'd like to chose what size a Screen im watching. .. this may be a feature in the rom more so than the kernel im not sure. =P

Ok. The timeline has been planned with my team. We will schedule our first build and commit this coming week, and, once we reach a stable build, we move on to a kernel controlling app. Note that before the app is out, you can use AOKP (must be based off CM) to control voltage and etc.
Its almost here. Get ready.

:good:

Waiting waiting waiting!!!

Second the USB OTG support, even if it disables the SD card temporarily.
Some descriptions with the options, some users (including me) have no clue what some of the options actually mean.
A "nitros widget" like CPU boost would be great, to enable a different CPU profile easily.

Ok. Heres the deal to my favourite community. The reason why i picked O2X, because i can see potential Ok, the Thread i will be creating will include how to use some features of the kernel. This allows newbies to also use the kernel.
Developers i need your help too. Any thing you want me to do, post here! Non devs, tell me kernel bugs in CM, i try to help aremcee!

Currently main bug in cm is call audio bug.
Arcee is already working on that, but if you solve it, it will be very helpful to boost this forum. Other bug is slow charging..

And we have another bug called BSOD.
Gesendet von meinem LGP990 mit CM10.

i also came up with another great feature, NTFS filesystem module integration :laugh:

PKP-Rhinstone & other things

HEY GUYS
SOME OF YOU MAY KNOW ME
BUT IN CASE YOU DONT
hi der​
ive changed the thread title and stuff because im gonna be posting more than just my kernels here from now on,including test dtb's,test hboots and other things,also making it into sorta a "diary" when i work on things,including post code snippets for when i work with some of the other devs on projects.
working on using kexec to load a custom dtb. i have modified tasssadars kexec tools to support a11. need someone with the know-how to compile it. https://github.com/pattyboi/kexec-tools
working on porting caf 3.10. those interested can find my repo here: https://github.com/pattyboi/3.10-a11/
gonna need help with it. if you know what your doing,hit me up.
Rhinstone features: ​new thermal (franciscofranco's)
new hotplug (decimalmans autohotplug)
soundcard control,aka boosting and such (zeroblade1984s tamod sound control driver)
bfq io scheduler optimized for emmc/nand storage (khaon)
optimized interactive governor thanks to many people
optimized simpleondemand gpu governor thanks to blechdose
most motorola kernel optimizations
most DKP kernel optimzations (including overlocking the i2c driver subsystem) ((decimal mans gs3 kernel,highly suggested if you have the device))
compiled with the latest sabermod arm 5.1 toolchain with graphite gcc options and tuned for cortex a7
memcpy combined from motorola and hglm's patches (https://github.com/hglm/test-arm-kernel-memcpy/)
removed A LOT of debug,including most htc debug and sensor self tests or useless functions
adreno idler (arter97)
uksm with all of the dkp optimizations
some upstream linux kernel updates to misc parts of the kernel
cache & neon updates (xboxfanj)
built in fast charge (alim.p)
con kalivas linux tweaks
many other misc code optimizations that would clutter the op,the kernel is fast in my opinion,and battery life is much better than standard kernel,i will be reimplementing f2fs and exfat soon..kernel was rebased and forget to pull them in
BIG THANKS TO: everyone. especially those inside my thread who have kept people from getting confused while using the kernel and also @protectivedad who created the flashable wifi zip. also a huge shout to the android community and all the devs i havent thank in the other part of this post
IVE ONLY TESTED ON MY CRICKET MODEL.
DO NOT FLASH IMMEDIATLY,"fastboot boot "release-date".img",if all goes well and you have no issues then run "fastboot flash boot "release-date"img" to permanetly flash it,THEN YOU NEED TO FLASH THE WIFI ZIP,just flash it through twrp,thx to @

hi der
so,as everyone knows,this phone is FAR from a perfomance monster ATM...(big things are coming)
and everyone knows cm has the camera issue,which is keeping alot of people back from using it
so for everyone on stock,heres my kernel,rhinstone...(yes,spelled wrong,i like it that way)
ive tried merging in things that would specifically help make the phone more EFFICENT,NOT BALLS TO THE WALL 420 CRAZY NO SCOPE PERFORMANCE.
its got intelliplug,new thermal,removed B.S., blah blah
but being real,this should drastically increase your phones performance,ive worked hard on setting this up,and while keeping everything working and stable (so far)
so enjoy! the changlog is my github source,ill post here every once and awhile too just to ease the explaining
ITS FOR STOCK ONLY. IVE ONLY TESTED ON MY CRICKET MODEL.
DO NOT FLASH IMMEDIATLY,"fastboot boot image-new.img",if all goes well and you have no issues then run "fastboot flash boot image-new.img" to permanetly flash it
CREDITS: EVERYONE THAT APPEARS IN MY GITHUB,THANK ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE PUT HARD WORK IN MAKING MODS FOR THE 8226 BOARD,AND POSTING THEM FOR US TO ENJOY & EVERYONE WHO ISNT UP THERE AS WELL,THANK ALL OF YOU ​

Both camera's work?
Sent from my XT1028 using XDA Free mobile app

I'm Curious About The Cameras Working As Well And Also If Any Has Tried It On Virgin?

They work for me,mileage may very of course but everything works fine on nosense for me

Is write protection removed?

Good to go for Boost users, so Virgin should have no problems either. Flashed on my Boost with no issues. Both cameras work. Write protection is removed. Only problem is that the default camera app will not save pictures, so use a third party app like Camera Zoom FX or something. Videos still do not save, so dont bother with those. Its a strange issue with the other kernels and nobody knows why.
Explanation: because HTC...
When can we expect governors? And if I here one more thing about DBT I swear I'll punch a kitten

Ummm...now when you say "more efficient"...
I don't think you know what that word means
I'm not trying to insult your intelligence or anything, the intelliplug certainly seems to be doing its job while watching the CPUs with 3c Toolbox. And I know Quadrant scores only tell PART of the story. But you said this kernel should "drastically increase performance". Taking a look at the CPU score alone compared to stock (even CM!) is unconvincing

I got 2971.

OK...found the koolness, Quadrant scores forgiven (for now)
In 3c Toolbox there are now GAMMA and SPEAKER settings. Yus plx!
BTW, probably should mention that in the OP

Google Camera works for taking Photos and Videos
Edit: Google Camera DOES have settings. Slide from the left edge and you'll notice at the bottom right a gear symbol. People in the app comments on the Play Store are dense

I think the coolness is the fact that both cameras are working WITH WRITE PROTECT REMOVED! W00T!

does this also allow for app to SD?

If you mean will it allow you to use foldermount to mimic obb files on internal SD card...simple answer:
F**K YES!

WELP
Cameras work, system protection is gone, and overall very happy! (Just switched back to stock from CM11)
Installed Link2SD with an EXT3 partition on my SD card not that it's being used.
Mainly using Link2SD just to install apps as system apps which clears up a TON of space (why does this phone have almost 2 gigs free in system partition!!??
Also integrating updates into system apps.
Thanks for the kernel!

I see possibilities here. Before, we couldn't use a custom kernel without borking our cameras. Is there a way to get pattyboi on with rbheromaxx, shinru and yourself in getting a fully working cm kernel with working cameras. I have a github account but i haven't the foggiest on how to build from scratch. I will try to help as much i can and together maybe we can submit it cyanogen and have them take over and start getting nightlies!
Just a thought lol

Good to hear! I'm sure things will start kicking off now!

i dont run benchmarks tbh so idk what the deal is with the scores,not to sound rude but "i dont care" i just judge off how my device feels to me personally obviously ;P and to me it feels snappier and all those other buzz words :silly: but i will download quadrant and do some runs for the next couple of things im gonna try
oh and btw,shoutout to shinru and rbhero,they are the ones that got write protection off,i just cherry-picked the commits :d
and for governors,i really dunno,what would you guys like me to add?
oh,for next release im probably gonna try a new saber toolchain,long as it dont break anything
and finally,for anyone wondering im in a skype chat with rbhero shinru and kalisto,im not a magician so the big stuff tbh has kinda been on shinru,kalisto and rbhero,but i will be trying to help out with anything they do

No problem dude, not rude. I completely understand. Like I said Quadrants don't tell the whole story. It IS smooth. How much smoother than stock? Can't really tell from the surface honestly. Otherwise it performs just as well as stock.
Its main feature that's excited me is finally being able to emulate files from my external to internal storage with foldermount. I'm a hardcore 1337pr0 gamer junkie and was disappointed I wasn't able to before, so props bro! I'll definitely be running the paces on this thing finally. rbheromax can atest that I know how to beat a phone into submission

The basics. Intellidemand, Lionheart, smartassv2...others if you feel so inclined.

sounds good,ill get right on it ill try to have something for you to push hard very soon
BTW: for everyone,after installing this,go to system/bin and delete mpdesicision.dont want any conflicts with intelliplug

I have already forked the source and started using it as a base. Progress can be tracked under branch cm-12.0
https://github.com/rbheromax/Rhinstone-a11/commits/cm-12.0
@pattiboi I added prima to my kernel tree fork. i think you may need that later down the road
config options being:
Code:
#
# Qualcomm Atheros Prima WLAN module
#
# CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN is not set
CONFIG_PRONTO_WLAN=y
# CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN_BTAMP is not set
CONFIG_HTC_WIFI_NVS=y
CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN_LFR=y
# CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN_OKC is not set
# CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN_11AC_HIGH_TP is not set
# CONFIG_WLAN_FEATURE_11W is not set
# CONFIG_QCOM_VOWIFI_11R is not set
stray from that (specifically LFR), it'll fail to build
